* The episode 40 of ''[[Gundam Seed]]'' sees a rather unusual development of this trope: both characters involved are piloting [[Humongous Mecha]] and the "rescuer" has to pull the "rescued" onto an accelerating space shuttle. |

* Happens quite often in [[Eureka Seven]], (including in some of the title sequences,) though often without the actual words being spoken. Oh, and it usually happens thousands of feet in the air, with one character in a giant flying robot. Because that's how they roll. |
